I understand this might not be taken into consideration with high priority, but it's still extremely useful as developers workflow may not be interrupted. This make developer more productive. 

Although right now Eclipse supports some form of hot key in operating IDE, some others components are not. For instance, right click, then build project. Therefore, it's useful to provide a mechanism that developer can use keyboard or hotkey to navigate or execute some operations that needs to be done using mouse.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
